Official Transcripts:

An official transcript is a certified record of the academic work done at the University of Iowa. It includes classes taken, hours earned, grades received and degrees conferred. Many colleges require that transcripts sent to the student be in a sealed envelope with a signature across the flap from the sending institution. If you need to have your transcript sent to you in this manner, please indicate this at the time of your request. Official transcripts from the University of Iowa are not sent in a sealed envelope unless so requested.

Early Transcripts:

An early transcript is an official transcript that includes all current session grades and, if any, degree notation, to be produced prior to the session grade update and/or degree updates procedure(s). This type of transcript can be produced upon request – please go to the Registrar Service Center for the process. There is a surcharge for this service, and early transcripts are not immediately available.

Partial Transcripts:

Partial transcripts for the colleges of Dentistry, Law, Medicine, and Graduate College are available upon request. A student may request a partial transcript showing only undergraduate work. This type of transcript shows only the academic work completed in the professional or Graduate College or at the undergraduate level. You may place your request at the Registrar Service Center. There is a surcharge for this service, and partial transcripts are not immediately available.

The Registrar's Office does not provide unofficial transcripts. If you are a current student you may obtain a grade report on ISIS. Grade reports are rarely accepted by prospective employers or other schools in place of official transcripts.
